I do remember my parents taking me to a swap meet and having me sell all of my toys -- including TMNT -- so that I could buy a SNES, which I wanted.

The Super NES definitely put a huge dent in my interest for toys in general also. I got my first SNES for Christmas of 1992. It was the Super Set with 2 controllers and and included a copy of Super Mario World. Also got Mortal Kombat the same day. I was definitely hooked, and so were my friends.
